The violent Bhuddhists doesn't support that question, they're the majority and hold the power in Burma. They don't have to be violent to throw off oppression. They're attacking Muslims simply because they don't like them and blame the minority for the larger economic problems the country faces.
Not that it isn't an valid question, and a point that I've raised before. Once "terrorism" (the targetting of civilians and civilian infrastructure to coerce political and military decisions) is the only tool left for what you perceive is justified resistance it seems that everybody easily finds a way to justify it.
There was not insignificant Jewish resistance to Nazi's during World War II in various areas, partiularly in parts of Poland and (at least to the extend I'm familiar with it) it was restrained to attacks on military targets. But their capabilities were pretty limited.
